I started coming to River Yoga just over a year ago when my other yoga place went out of business. River invited me in with open arms - this was before COVID. They have three locations now. One on Welton, one in Golden Triangle and a BRAND new one in Sunnyside. The River has literally kept me from going bonkers during this pandemic. Teachers are amazing and schedules are generous. Mask required if you go in person but they have plenty of online classes as well! Run, don't walk to The River! You won't be disappointed!!

LOVED THIS STUDIO. I was here for only 5 days from Chicago, and I needed a place to practice. This studio smelled so yummy, it was SPOTLESS, and all of the members and teachers were so kind. Katie, the manager, was who I practiced with three times. She literally is so intelligent. I felt so safe there with social distancing in place and they made me feel so so welcome. I loved the dim lights and soft music. No mirrors, which was new to me. I loved feeling the pose rather than looking for the "aesthetic " of my pose. 10/10 would recommend. namaste babes! -celine

This place was great. In Denver for work and location was walking distance to hotel, with plenty of class options that fit my schedule. I took Christen's Hot Power Vinyasa class and it was a great flow, nice strong pace and very challenging. Studio temp was moderately hot, but not stifling hot I've felt in some studios. Just the right temp to loosen everything up. Great guidance from Christen without being too crunchy, and plenty of space for self-exploration in the practice. Staff at the counter was very warm and welcoming, as was Christen, and the studio had a great vibe among the folks

I love this studio! The vibe and ambiance is everything you would want in a local yoga studio.
They have a ton of options for classes, everything from vinyasa, meditation, deep stretch, etc. The room has no mirrors, which I really like because it is so easy to get lost into 'perfecting' your pose or watching others. The instructors will work with you on your pose and very gently move you into the right position. The room is always warm to help stretch a bit further.
I have notice that all the instructors kind of have their own following and style. I haven't been to enough classes

Finally found a studio I like in Denver!! Go here if you are looking for:
- 'Heated' (but not suffocatingly hot) yoga studios
- No mirrors, for those who prefer to focus on what their practice FEELS like, not looks like
- Complimentary yoga matts
- Power yoga that focus not only on the physical, but mental aspects of the practice
- Multiple locations and plenty of time slots!
Best of all worlds!

I have been doing hot yoga for several years. I tried out this studio for a month. They have a great $39 new student special. I went to many different classes over the month. I took primarily hot yoga classes but also took the yoga bootcamp and yoga cross classes. I especially enjoyed the yoga cross class which started with 30 min of CrossFit at the gym next door and ended with 45 min of hot yoga. This was a great workout.
I felt that all the teachers I encountered at this studio were very professional and well trained. I especially enjoyed that most try to connect to the more philosophical side

Finally found a yoga studio to call home. I will seek out any yoga studio that offers a Childrens yoga class during an adult yoga class so my daughter can practice while I get "me time" on the mat. Upon discovering The River my daughter and I both felt right at home. The ambiance, the class offerings, the energy from the staff and teachers and the retail selection...allll the boxes got checked! Love the intro offers too. I even got my skeptic-husband to try yoga for the very first time (ever) and he also joined the rivers first month intro offer! He's recovering from a life threatening

Not even sure where to begin with this -- as someone who teaches multiple yoga classes during the week, finding time to get on my own mat and fill my own cup can seem like a major challenge. When I realized I had a full free day to hang in Denver, practicing went to the very top of my list. The photos of this place totally lured me in, as well as the other glowing reviews listed below. Not terrible that it was within walking distance to the Airbnb and Rosenberg's...major win.
I did loop around a wide block -- Google maps not exactly accurate -- but the walk was a nice warm up to class.

Google maps directions were incorrect for Five Points. Called the studio to confirm the address at 12:30, no answer. Showed up at 12:31 to the studio, but the doors are locked, no one is answering, and I'm standing out here waiting. Nothing was said on Classpass about doors being locked 1 minute after class starts. I've kept calling both studios, can't get ahold of anyone. Extremely frustrated and very disappointed about this. I had signed up in the system beforehand, so they clearly knew there was a student who hadn't signed in when they decided to lock the doors. Won&apos

I've been coming to this studio for over 2 years, and even continued after moving out of the neighborhood. This is the only yoga studio I would drive for! The teachers are great and the studio offers a lot of styles depending on what you're looking for. Some classes are slow and steady and others are a rigorous sweat pool and I like both depending on my day. Fair prices. Highly recommend.

I really wanted to like this studio. The website suggests that they offer yoga classes to bodies of different shapes and sizes, with a strong emphasis on community. Rad! That sounded right up my alley. I got a new student special and tried a wide variety of classes.
And then, in the middle of one of the classes, the instructor stopped to ask if anyone was wearing a fitbit and could tell us all how many calories had burned. Pardon? I have never been so tempted to walk out in the middle of the class. I stuck it out, tried to give the instructor the benefit of the doubt (slip up? weird day? you

I did a 30-day trial ($39) to give this place a chance. It's winter time - why not try some hot yoga?! I went to a couple of "bootcamp" yoga classes and quite a few hot and warm vinyasa classes. Great intimate facility, thoughtful instructors and challenging classes.
After taking over half a dozen classes it wasn't for me... The classes are packed - mat to mat, which means the instructor won't be demonstrating poses because there is not room for them. Maybe not so good for a beginner. Music during my practice is important to me and all the instructors use pop music. I

The first hot yoga class in Denver that I've been to that is actually HOT! Loved the atmosphere of the space, and appreciate the assistants who helped perfect my form. Overall, a great experience. However, I will say the location was kind of hard to find. Hint: it's in the same building as some apartments, behind the train tracks.

This is what I call a hidden gem! Tucked away behind the Art Museum and Civic Center, this yoga studio is small but mighty. As soon as I walked in, I immediately felt the sense of community and warmth that makes a yoga studio truly special.
Despite only having 2 rooms, this studio offers a variety of classes and times that work well for my ever-changing schedule. The staff is kind, generous, and really pay attention to each person in a given class, making an "all levels" class less intimidating for those of us who aren't pros already. Classes run warm, not truly hot, but they fill

Very nice studio, just not my style. The facilities are nice and interior decor very earthy. The rooms did not heat a lot, which may be fine for those that don't like it too hot (I do). The showers were always nice and heated up quickly. Instructors were very nice. In general I did not get much of a workout, which I like in my practice. Their yoga is pretty chill which will suit many. I tried a harder class but it was essentially holding poses for a lot longer, which isn't my thing. That particular instructor was also pretty militant (not my style).

Incredibly instructors, a variety of classes, clean locker rooms, and overall a genuinely kind community.
I've tried a number of their classes and have not been disappointed with any of my experiences. My first class was Inversion Conditioning with Joy and I was SO nervous. Luckily Joy was incredibly attentive and catered her class well for all skill levels. I have never had so much fun doing ab work for 5 minutes.
An added plus to The River is their amazing neighbor Fitness in the City. I was intimidated to try a cross fit class, so I did the Yoga Cross instead. If you are a hardcore

Love the atmosphere/vibes here. All of the instructors here are top notch and have a lot of yoga experience. Katy Rowe, the manager, is an awesome human being, and I really encourage people to give The River a try!
They also have workshops often and I recently took the Thai Massage one, which was a wonderful experience. I would like to do their kids yoga training once they have another one.

I love this place. Their yoga classes are always heated which I love but it's more of a heated vinyasa
I love the flow of this studio
There is a bathroom in which you can shower after class and it's very accommodating.
I wish I could come here more often but I moved across town :(
Shout out to Melanie!
